Honey and vinegar is a very useful kitchen tool for treating various diseases. Both can also be used to treat wounds. So if one day you are getting hurt, before the went to the medicine cabinet, try to check the kitchen cabinets.

Those who are accustomed to using home remedies like using honey to heal wounds. There are several reasons for that. First, honey is smeared over the wound acts as a fence to protect the wound from the outside and prevent infection.

Perhaps this is rather illogical because honey is inherent in all things is touched. If noted, the dust and so will stick on the surface of the honey and can not penetrate into the wound.

Second, honey is also relieving pain due to its nature as a natural anti-inflammatory. On the other hand, the honey also makes the wound remains moist during the healing process, but does not inhibit the process.

Vinegar did not want to miss. Of course many know apple cider vinegar? We used to call apple vinegar. Well, the apple vinegar can also heal wounds.

Like honey, apple vinegar also heal wounds by preventing the spread of bacteria in the wound. In addition, apple cider vinegar also accelerate the healing process and reduce the itching which usually arise when the wound started to heal.

So, the basic difference between apple vinegar and honey in wound healing is the honey acts as a painkiller, while the vinegar to relieve itching.

Which one should you use? Both are good, depending on how severe the injury suffered by you or at what stage of the wound.
